Chapter 316: [Batch change, hold big move]


At the end of May, the draw for the 2oo2nBa Draft was over.
No unpopular outburst, the Knicks won the top pick with the worst record in the East. Because of its high commercial value, as long as the team manager's brain is not wrong, the top pick will definitely choose Yao Ming. Many New York fans immediately welcomed Yao Ming on the Internet, and experts also believed that he could become the Knicks' new insider pillar.
Only Yang Rui was a little worried about Yao Ming’s future, hoping that the Knicks would send Sprewell away in the summer and become teammates with this neuropathy just after entering the league, which will definitely affect the player’s mentality.
And the Knicks also have Ben Wallace, Yao Ming and Big Ben's partner inside... that picture is so beautiful. Big Ben, who can't always be two meters, grabs rebounds with anti-block shots inside. Yao Ming goes out to prevent pick-and-roll? Conversely, if Yao Ming is in charge of resistance at the rim and Big Ben goes out to prevent pick-and-rolls, then the data will be gone.
Yao Ming is also good to join the Knicks, high exposure is on the one hand, on the other hand the team is not bad money. In the future, as long as Yao Ming becomes the core of the team, the boss will definitely find him a good teammate, a good substitute, and will not be as tired as in the Rockets. Of course, it may also be a group of high-paying low-energy partners.
The Cavaliers won the top spot and it was difficult for them to turn over before choosing a star.
The Warriors won the rookie pick with the worst record in the West.
The Wizards are only the 12th in the East, failed to reach the top three, and the eighth overall pick is also good.
Michael Jordan called Yang Rui to communicate with him on behalf of the management. Now that the Wizards are preparing for next season, coach Doug Collins has retired and made room for Yang Rui.
"Jerry, do you want to trade another round before the draft?" Jordan's original intention to find Yang Rui is to see his ability to build the team. This season, the Wizards will go to a large half and need newcomers.
Yang Rui had a plan: "Without too many rounds of signing, we have to score for next season. Try to trade and sign players in the free market. There are too many rookies to cultivate. It is best to make the first three rounds of trading. Adding the No. 8 draft pick is enough."
Jordan was silent for a moment and felt inappropriate. "Is it possible to choose only three newcomers?"
"Two newcomers will do. I will pick the Wizards for the best rookie. The Wizards' second-round picks can be traded because the team lacks defensive guards. If this problem is not solved, the team will not be able to play in the playoffs next season. Go too far. I need a deal on draft day."
"Speak."
"Hubert Davis and the second-round draft pick for the King's forward Gerald Wallace. He was a marginal player at the King last season, and he will definitely be able to exchange it. The King will add cash and should pay the salary. Wait. Whoever they want, we will choose them for the second round." Yang Rui answered.
"The guy who participated in the dunk contest? Isn't he a small forward? The offense is too bad. How do I get this kind of person on the bench?" Jordan immediately felt unreliable.
Yang Rui explained with a smile: "Michael, he is not your substitute, but a substitute for the 4th position. I will let him play at the power forward. His strength can resist most of the 4th position. When playing the fast break, there is no power forward. Run faster than him."
"..." Jordan thought about it, not refuting it.
The two-meter Ben Wallace publicly thanked Yang Rui for playing center at two meters. Of course, Gerald Wallace of 2o1cm plays power forward. He showed amazing physical fitness in the dunk contest, defeating Francis to the final.
"Are there any other requirements?" Jordan asked.
"No, for the time the free market opens, I will provide a complete list of signings. Don't worry, I have plans. The Wizards will definitely play in the playoffs next season. I even think about the tactics."
"Well, I'm waiting for you. I wish you a successful defeat of the Lakers and win the championship again." Jordan laughed.
"Haha, that is certain."
Yang Rui does have a plan to build a team around Jordan. Jordan is the core of the team. To ensure the offensive efficiency, he must play forward tactics. Since it is not a draw from the inside, it is not possible to use the Raptors like Princeton, and some changes must be made.
The key to change is to have players who fit the system and who can run. Gerald Wallace is an important part, and he is called by some Chinese fans as "Deathless Sakuragi". As a frequent windmill dunk, his physical fitness is beast-level existence, playing power forward is more powerful than small forward.
In the Bobcats, Gerald had 18.2 points and 1o rebounds during his peak season. Height was not a problem at all. A guy with a full back is a power forward who can hold the ball and break through, even if the shot is almost enough for the opponent.
This season is not over yet, Yang Rui's attention is still to be placed in the finals with the Lakers. Due to four more days of rest, the Raptors have been fully prepared. The coaching staff communicated all the things to the players, and the rest The only thing is to play.
The Raptors arranged closed training, and did not accept media interviews, as did the Lakers. Both teams are holding back big moves.
In the 2ooo year, Yang Rui asked Christie to provoke Kobe before the game and disturbed the "ok combination" mentality. He did not use the same way this season. Reed and Carter can't defend Kobe. He will send Kirilenko to defend. Kirilenko is not good at English, and he must have an interpreter for provocation.
This year Yang Rui and Kirilenko have little communication, and they love and hate this Russian. His basketball talent is not inferior to those of the league's forwards, and even better, but his language talent is so indescribable. After a season, he still can only speak simple words, and he doesn't understand.
There are some previous life news, Yang Rui has forgotten, otherwise he will serve Kirilenko even more.
In the 2oo7 Jazz playoff game against the Rockets, Kirilenko performed poorly, and his wife Martha was interviewed, arguing that the problem between her husband and coach Sloan was that he could not pass English.
Martha said: "It's disappointing, his English is not very good. Sometimes he can't explain what he wants to express, maybe he needs a translator."
She also mentioned that there is always an interpreter around Yao Ming. "Perhaps we will also hire one. There is a language barrier between the coach and him, it seems there is some misunderstanding between them."
In fact, Yao Ming no longer has to translate in the second season of the league~EbookFREE.me~ In interviews, I often say something humorous. Kirilenko joined nBa a year earlier, and communication is not good.
Therefore, Yang Rui has always given Kirilenko a very simple tactic. He has only three things to do in the team, cut the basket, catch the ball and defend the opponent's outside core.
After running in the regular season, Kirilenko gradually integrated into the team. Even if he didn't carry an interpreter during training, Yang Rui just told him "anti-Kobe", "anti-Pierce", "anti-Meddy", he knew what he should do.
As for the inside competition, the Raptors do not need to provoke O'Neal. All teams use the shark-cutting tactics against the Lakers. Yang Rui only needs to prepare a few meat shields.
Yang Rui's previous series of garbage time all allowed Jalen Collins to play, accumulating experience in the playoffs, and he will not let it go. This time he will definitely play in the finals.
On the team, Jalen has been practicing low post defense, and Jerome James will learn O'Neal's way of playing and turn around to shoot. What he has to do is to foul in time, not to be scored 2+1.
On the evening of June 2, the finals started.
